The SPF-Rx program is designed to address nonmedical use of prescription drugs as well as opioid overdoses by raising awareness about the dangers of sharing medications and by working with pharmaceutical and medical communities. The SPF-Rx program aims to promote collaboration between states/tribes and pharmaceutical and medical communities to understand the risks of overprescribing to youth age 12â17 and adults 18 years of age and older and enhance capacity for and access to Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) data for prevention purposes.

Currently, there are 618 total burden hours. SAMHSA is requesting 1,867.5 burden hours. This is an adjustment of 1,249.5 hours based on actual burden estimates revisions to data collection instruments. This equates to an overall increase of 1,249.5 hours and $15,504.06 over the previously approved data collection.The annual burden costs have increased from previous approval due to 4 factors:
1. The previous OMB approval estimated 100 AII responses (25 grantees and 75 subrecipients), but the SPF-Rx grantees currently have 25 grantees and 123 subrecipients, totaling 148 AII responses, accounting for an additional 48 responses, 192 hours and $4,974.72 per year of data collection with the entire grantee cohort (i.e., Years 4 and 5).
2. The previous OMB approval estimated only 25 Community-Level Outcomes Module responses, but one is completed for each subrecipient, and therefore the burden has been increased to 123 responses, accounting for an additional 98 responses, 343 hours, and $14,961.66 per year of data collection with the entire grantee cohort (i.e., Years 4 and 5).
3. Based on grantee feedback, the time it takes for respondents to complete the AII was increased from 2.3 hours to 4 hours. While grantee feedback indicated that the Grantee-Level Outcomes Module burden should be increased from 3 hours to 6.2 hours, the module was reduced and the burden decreased to 2.5 hours. The Community-Level Outcomes Module burden was initially increased from 3 hours to 3.5 hours based on grantee feedback, but the instrument was subsequently reduced and the burden now estimated at 1.25 hours. The adjustments in the three instruments results in an overall reduction of 55 hours and $2,248.4 per year of data collection with the entire grantee cohort (i.e., Years 4 and 5). This reflects a 42% decrease in burden for the Grantee-Level Outcomes and the Community-Level Outcomes Modules (decrease from 6 hours to 3.75 hours across all respondents in all years). We expect that these burden estimates are more accurate than previous burden estimates, given that they are based on feedback from those who have completed data collection efforts during Years 1 and 2 of the evaluation in addition to changes in the data collection instruments based on the identification of duplicative data elements.
4. The SPF-Rx hourly wage estimates in the previous statement were $40.88, based on one salary using 2015 Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) data. The current package increased grantee-level staff to 2018 BLS data for hourly wages of $43.62. BLS data are an accurate representation of salary data, utilizing the National Compensation Survey which provides comprehensive measures of compensation cost trends and is updated each year to reflect those changes in average compensation.
